The rest of the land was either barren rocky areas or scrubland. Early British visitors to Bhutan reported "dark and steep glens, and the high tops of mountains lost in the clouds, constitut[ing] altogether a scene of extraordinary magnificence and sublimity." One of the most rugged mountain terrains in the world, it has elevations ranging from 160 meters to more than 7,000 meters above sea level, in some cases within distances of less than 100 kilometers of each other. Bhutan's highest peak, at 7,554 meters above sea level, is north-central Kulha Gangri, close to the border with China; the second highest peak, Chomo Lhari, overlooking the Chumbi Valley in the west, is 7,314 meters above sea level; nineteen other peaks exceed 7,000 meters. In the north, the snowcapped Great Himalayan Range reaches heights of over 7,500 meters above sea level and extends along the Bhutan-China border. The northern region consists of an arc of glaciated mountain peaks with an arctic climate at the highest elevations. Watered by snow-fed rivers, alpine valleys in this region provide pasturage for livestock tended by a sparse population of migratory shepherds.

Welcome to Asiatour.com - your one-stop source for travel guides on most Asian countries and some African destinations. H O M E Sexual relationships If you are traveling to this country, you may be interested in sexual relationships with locals, and no, I do not mean the services of prostitutes or other commercial providers. While you can meet citizen interested in sex accidentally, the chances of success are not particularly high if you are there only for a limited period of time (as I said: no prostitutes). On the other hand, they often are sexually attracted to foreign people. For young women, especially in the big cities, it is chic to have a Western boyfriend. So, there must be a trick to overcome the time-consuming "accidental", and to link more effectively the sexual interests of foreign visitors with those of locals. Try the Internet. Or, more to the point: try www.AdultfriendsFinder.com . The service lists a good number of residents explicitly interested in non-commercial sexual relationships. While there are more males on the search than females, there are indeed an amazing number of women using the service. It is truly amazing how popular www.AdultfriendsFinder.com

The Black Mountains, in central Bhutan, form a watershed between two major river systems, the Mo Chhu and the Drangme Chhu (chhu means river). Peaks in the Black Mountains range between 1,500 meters and 2,700 meters above sea level, and the fast-flowing rivers have carved out spectacular gorges in the lower mountain areas. The woodlands of the central region provide most of Bhutan's valuable forest production. Eastern Bhutan is divided by another southward spur, the Donga Range. Western Bhutan has fertile, cultivated valleys and terraced river basins.

HOME ABOUT US PLAN YOUR TRIP ITINERARIES ... CONTACT US Geography and Environment Bhutan is a land-locked country lying in the eastern Himalayas and is nestled between Tibet (to the north) and India (to the south, east, and west). Its total area is about 47,000 square kilometers. The country can be divided into three geographic regions. The northern and western borders of Bhutan contain the highest mountains in the country, the Great Himalayas, reaching heights of approximately 7,550 meters. The mountains gradually lose height as they extend southward, becoming the high forested hills and valleys of the Inner Himalayas. These central districts contain Bhutan's largest towns, and altitudes across the central region range from about 1,100 meters to 3,750 meters. The altitude of Thimphu is about 2,300 meters. Southern Bhutan lies at the foothills of the Himalayas and is mostly semitropical forest and bamboo jungle, and the altitudes there range from roughly 300 meters to 1,350 meters. There are four distinct seasons in Bhutan, with spring being the most beautiful time of year, when the rhododendron begin to bloom. The summer months are warm and rainy. When the monsoon ends, the skies become brilliant blue and clear and remain so through November. Autumn is the most popular season for travel to Bhutan, in part because it's a great time of year to view the Himalaya mountain range and to trek. The winter months are cold and clear, and in Thimphu, it frequently snows. The temperature in Thimphu ranges from approximately degrees Celsius in January to 25 degrees Celsius in July. The southern plains near the Indian border are warmer and more tropical than the higher central regions, thus the climate is more temperate and the winters tend to be warmer. In the Great Himalaya areas at the northern and western borders, it snows year-round.
